One Book Leads To Another! @ElleEverhart @AbroadInJapan #Wanderlust #ElleEverhart #AbroadInJapan #ChrisBroad #OneBookLeadsToAnother

Good morning everyone and happy New Year’s Eve Eve (is that a thing?).

I read Wanderlust by Elle Everhart earlier this year and absolutely loved travelling around all the different countries with the characters. One of the standout parts was the character’s visit to Japan which sounded like an amazing country and has just increased my determination to get there.

When I heard about Abroad In Japan I was immediately intrigued as I wanted to learn more about what it was like living there and to live precariously through someone else. I’ve heard lots of great things about this book so I’m excited to read it soon.

Has a book ever made you want to visit a country? If so which one?

Wanderlust by Elle Everhart

Two rivals. Seven countries. Could this be their chance to fall in love?


Dylan Coughlan has just won a trip around the world. The catch? Her travel partner is a random contact from her phone.


And it’s Jack ‘the Posho’, the man she accidentally ghosted. The two couldn’t be more different, and as the trip kicks off, Jack seems like he’d sooner fling himself into the sun than have a conversation with Dylan which does not bode well for her travel blog. She has to create a hit column documenting her travels…and her love life.


Dylan’s willing to do anything, even if it means embellishing her budding relationship. But as the column’s popularity grows, so does the bond between Dylan and Jack. There’s no denying the fire burning between them.


Will Dylan finally let her heart take flight or will she and Jack come down to Earth with a bump?

Abroad In Japan by Chris Broad

When Englishman Chris Broad landed in a rural village in northern Japan he wondered if he’d made a huge mistake. With no knowledge of the language and zero teaching experience, was he about to be the most quickly fired English teacher in Japan’s history?

Abroad in Japan charts a decade of living in a foreign land and the chaos and culture clash that came with it. Packed with hilarious and fascinating stories, this book seeks out to unravel one the world’s most complex cultures.

Spanning ten years and all forty-seven prefectures, Chris takes us from the lush rice fields of the countryside to the frenetic neon-lit streets of Tokyo. With blockbuster moments such as a terrifying North Korean missile incident, a mortifying experience at a love hotel and a week spent with Japan’s biggest movie star, Abroad in Japan is an extraordinary and informative journey through the Land of the Rising Sun.
